    soup

    Many soups are better the second day than the first, especially chowders.

    Here's a simple vegetarian black bean soup that's really easy to make:

    • a whole litre of black beans, soaked overnight
    • three large or five small onions, cut into wedges
    • Chinese oyster sauce (can be real-oyster sauce if you aren't a vegetarian)
    • two cloves garlic
    • canola oil

    Fry the onions to transparency in canola oil and add the garlic. Quickly, add the oyster sauce and about two litres of water, and the beans. Stew for about a half hour. If you can, let it cool down and sit cold for a few hours before re-heating and serving.
